'Machida vs. Shogun 2' Lineup Complete

Tim
Credeur will square off with “The Ultimate Fighter” Season 8
quarter-finalist Tom Lawlor in
a preliminary middleweight bout at UFC
113 “Machida vs. Shogun 2” on May 8 at the Bell Centre in
Montreal. The UFC has finalized an 11-fight lineup for the event,
which marks its return to the Great White North.

Credeur has posted six wins in seven appearances but finds himself
on the rebound following his unanimous decision defeat to Nate Quarry
at UFC Fight Night 19 in September. It was the first time in 15
fights as a professional that the 32-year-old Brazilian jiu-jitsu
black belt had gone the distance. A Lafayette, La., native and
former Rage in the Cage champion, Credeur has recorded eight of his
12 career wins by submission.

Lawlor, one of the UFC’s more eccentric characters, was a
three-time national wrestling champion at the University of Central
Florida. The 27-year-old Fall River, Mass., native dropped a
controversial split decision to the undefeated Aaron
Simpson at UFC Fight Night 20 three months ago. Five of
Lawlor’s six wins have come by knockout, technical knockout or
submission, including his UFC 100 victory over Arizona Combat
Sports standout C.B.
Dollaway.
